Publisher Description
I Paint A Rainbow - Level 2(B) - Learn To Read is a very simple book. One sentence (with slight changes) is used throughout the book. This repeating language pattern allows children to use memory in their first attempts at reading. As well, the more often a child reads a particular word, the more secure the connection between that word s appearance and its meaning becomes. The close correspondence between text and pictures, found in Level 2, also helps beginning readers experience success. Level 2 books are designed for children who are just beginning to learn how to read children in Kindergarten or early Grade One or children who are learning English as an additional language. When using any of our Learn To Read Books, the beginning reader should place his/her finger just below each word and then point to each word in succession while reading. Tapping just below any word causes the word to light up and allows the child to hear the word spoken aloud. The words have been recorded in Manitoba, Canada. If words are pronounced differently in the country/region where you live, simply use the custom recording feature and record the words in your own voice. Custom recordings can be transferred between our "Learn To Read Books" series of apps, including between iOS and Mac. Also included are high-frequency word flashcards. We suggest that these sight words be practiced before a story is attempted. If a child has difficulty with a word, he/she can simply touch the word to hear it! Since words in both the sight words section and the story can be tapped to be heard, it is possible for a child to practice the words and read the story without assistance from a teacher or parent. To turn off the audio, simply toggle the mute switch on the device. To learn to read, children need: 1. to learn letter sounds; 2. to memorize high-frequency sight words; 3. to read books at their level. Through the use of Learn to Read Books and a letter-sound app such as "Z is for Zebra", these three key components of learning to read can be taught and practiced on an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad. The authors of Learn to Read Books are Celesta Thiessen and Francie Humby. Both are certified teachers. Celesta has a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Education . She has written early chapter books, novels for teens and for adults, and numerous short stories. Francie has a Bachelor of Arts, a Bachelor of Education, and a Master of Education in Special Education. As an Early Years teacher, she has thirty-six years of experience in teaching young children to read.
